Ownership and Understanding- Loss Prevention Training

Employee training methods are constantly changing and evolving. The purpose of employee training however remains the same: to promote employee ownership and understanding. Specifically to loss prevention training, employees who have a deeper understanding are more likely to take ownership of these processes and actively reduce shrinkage in your stores.
Loss prevention training takes many forms. Some of them are self-monitored, such as computer based learning programs, or handbook reviews. Some loss prevention training comes directly from supervisors in the store. These kinds of trainings center around store specific policies and procedures designed to minimize risk and exposure. Others are aimed toward store operations and how to handle day-to-day tasks and assignments.
Lastly, loss prevention seminars can take place. They might be geared towards the entire store, or it might be for all of the management staff for a multi location company. Either way, the end result is still to train your employees so they have a more through understanding of how certain actions affect a store’s shrink and profit lines.
It is also a way for employees to understand what to look for and why thieves act the way they do- which is a deterrent in and of itself for employee theft. The end result is that employees who are knowledgeable are more likely to react to situations they are comfortable with a positive result.

Give Away The Answers- Employee Theft

I was having a conversation with a peer of mine that runs his own business. He was telling me that he was not convinced that he should do employee theft training with his employees. He felt that if he did formalized loss prevention training on employee theft, he would be giving away the answers and ways for his employees to turn around and steal from him.
I had to stop and think about it for a minute. Yes. It is possible that an employee might get ideas on how to defraud his employer after going through that sort of loss prevention workshop. What my peer didn’t think about is that the employee was probably already toying with the idea of theft, or had already tested the waters in their own way.
The flip side is that when you take your team of employees to a loss prevention workshop, you are actually showing them why they should not steal. These seminars are designed to create more eyes that will be aware of what is going on at the store level.
If an employee is thinking about stealing, they know that there are more people aware of methods and red flags- making it more likely to be caught. By sending your employees to training also sends a message that you are raising awareness of all facets of your business and that employee theft will not be tolerated.

What Works Best- Loss Prevention Training

There are many different kinds of loss prevention training. Some are focused on shoplifting identification and shoplifting prevention. Other loss prevention training is centered on employee theft. Still others revolve around general store safety and operational best practices. Each focus can be the cause of major financial staring on small retailers.
When you understand what your store specific concerns are, it is easier to find a loss prevention workshop that will fit your needs. Why would you and your employees want to waste your time in loss prevention seminars that are too generalized or do not focus enough on your particular problems or worries?
The smart decision is to work with the training facilitators to make sure they understand exactly what your expectations are. There is no point in spending your time and your hard earned money on loss prevention training that will not produce a return on your investment later on.
One of the most commonly sought after loss prevention seminars are ones that focus on shoplifting. Regardless of your location, client base and product assortment, shoplifting can happen to you. Because of the frequency, these seminars are best suited for a wide array of retailers. Most shoplifters exhibit the same basic strategies and methods. The prevention tactics therefore are equally as universal as the crimes they are deterring and eliminating.

Beyond an EAS System- Loss Prevention Workshop

If you have a shoplifting problem in your store the obvious solution is to run out and invest in an EAS system, or similar retail theft prevention. EAS systems are a significant financial investment, one that will pay off over time, but may cause an immediate strain on some small business finances.
EAS systems are also not an immediate fix. You have to decide which system you want, have it installed and then EAS tag or label your inventory. Again, an extremely effective and worthwhile investment, but what do you do in the mean time?
Look into taking a loss prevention workshop for additional loss prevention training.
Sometimes the best solution is the most obvious solution. A loss prevention workshop can give you tips and tricks to mitigate some of your losses (for free) while you coordinate your efforts to install an EAS system.
One of the tips to stop shoplifting is to look at remerchandising some of the more desirable products within your store. Do you have small, high theft items on a shelf location in the middle of your store? Why not move them closer to the POS system? These items will have a better chance of being continually monitored, and anyone who picks one up can easily and immediately pay for it.

The Five Steps- Shoplifting

In the retail environment, there are five steps associates with stopping shoplifting in progress. While they may not correlate directly to a legal apprehension made by local law enforcement, these five steps are designed to keep a retail establishment in the clear from wrongful detainments.
If you are going to allow employees, whether it might be a manager, or a dedicated loss prevention employee (if you are so lucky to afford one), to make an apprehension, you need ensure these steps are followed to a T.
Loss prevention training is extremely important as the elimination of even one step can create a huge lawsuit and liability for your business.
The steps are as follows: First, you need to see the subject enter the store. The point is to see what they have, what they are wearing or carrying, so you can conversely know what merchandise they are stealing from you.
Next you need to see them enter the area where the merchandise is sold. You absolutely need to see them select (pick up) the merchandise in question. Again, this ensures you can verify the merchandise is absolutely your property and not theirs.
At this point you need to see them conceal the product or otherwise demonstrate that they are intending to steal.
Maintain constant observation of the merchandise. If you loose contact, can you be sure they did not discard the merchandise somewhere along the way? Some shoplifting suspects do get spooked and drop the product.
Finally they need to exit the store and pass the last point of sales. Loss prevention seminars are out there that can further expound on these steps, and explain the subtle nuances that can arise during an actual shoplifting stop.

Deviate From The Policy- Employee Theft

If you suspect that employee theft will happen, or is about to happen, you need to be more prepared than having a sign that says, “shoplifting will be prosecuted”. You have to train your employees that you are aware of different methods, and tactics used in employee theft. You have to be able to train the other employees to be eyes and ears when you are not there.
Loss prevention seminars help you have the information to guide your employees toward making better decisions. Employees who see the heightened awareness level in a store are less likely to steal. They are less likely to spend their energy coming up with ways to work around your systems.
The stores that have a blanket statement, but no training or awareness, are more likely to have theft issues. Without a clear understanding of how deep the awareness and prevention goes in a store, the more likely employees are to abuse the system.
When an employee is unaware of all of the different levels of security and protection you have in place, they think it is easy to get away with employee theft. Using loss prevention seminars shows the employees that policies and procedures are already in place to combat the theft. If they start to deviate from those policies, a red flag will go up and they will be caught.

Loss Prevention Certification- Loss Prevention Training

Currently there is a big push for Loss Prevention Employees to be certified through the Loss Prevention Foundation. They have two levels of certification- one for those beginning their careers and another for those who have been around longer. The point is to standardize loss prevention training throughout the industry.
This formalized loss prevention training and certification is expensive, too expensive for most small businesses to certify more than one or two mangers within the organization. That doesn’t mean that it is not beneficial to have this kind of information available for all of your employees.
By attending a more affordable loss prevention workshop, you can get your entire team involved and educated. Benefits to this kind of training include better job performance by providing awareness of methods and kinds of losses that retailer’s incur. They can improve competencies needed to resolve shrink losses and implications. They can also improve the perception of your company or business within the community.
When businesses take a stand against shoplifting losses within their walls, the community takes notice. It is not just the shoplifting that begins to go elsewhere, it is also the customers who have a better perception of your attentive employees. Instead of going somewhere else, they come to you. They begin to share a positive message of your stores, thus growing your business as more customers come to you for their shopping needs.

How To Approach a Shoplifter- Loss Prevention Training

If you have a customer suspected of shoplifting in your store, what do you do? For some the answer is simple- you walk up to them accuse them of shoplifting and demand to search their bags to find the stolen items.
For others, the answer is to not confront them and to call the police to have them arrested. As for the rest of your employees, the best approach is one of denial- “He was a shoplifter? Really? I didn’t notice.”
While all of these approaches make sense depending on the type of person you or your employees are, none of them are the best way to go.
If you accuse a shoplifter directly, you open yourself up to a variety of scenarios. The first is an open/ aggressive confrontation can escalate into a potentially dangerous situation. The shoplifter might be armed, or prepared to fight his way out. If you do not have any proof, you might open yourself and your business up to a wrongful detainment/ accusation lawsuit. It can cost tens of thousands of dollars and potentially negative press. Same thing goes for calling the police without actual proof.
A passive/ non-existent approach can lead to shoplifters coming back because they do not fear getting caught. The best way is to learn the five steps retailers’ use and how to legally approach a shoplifter. Loss prevention seminars can walk you through the steps and answer most of the legal questions you might have.

Beyond An Apprehension- Loss Prevention Workshop

Going to a loss prevention workshop isn’t only about learning how to apprehend a shoplifter. It is about finding ways to identify your store’s vulnerable areas and finding plausible, financially sound, and effective solutions for them. Some store’s do not want to make apprehensions, but do not realize there are other ways to prevent shoplifting.
The reality is most shoplifting is preventable. Some of them might be easy fixes, and some of them might require a more complex system to keep the shrink losses at bay. 
The more training and education you have, the better your chances of reducing your overall shrink losses. The key is in knowing what your specific store vulnerabilities are and how they happen. 
Maybe you have inattentive employees on the weekends. Perhaps your high theft merchandise would benefit from being placed at the front of the store where employees can watch it better. 
Can you use EAS and other retail anti theft devices to keep your desirable products on the sales floor for customers, but deterring theft at the same time?
Does your shoplifting happen at a certain time of day or week? What are your biggest loss items? Have you found evidence that the shoplifting seems to happen in the same location of the store (fitting room, back corner)?
By identifying the key areas, the information from a loss prevention workshop can be applied to how to deter shoplifting, saving you and your employees from actually having to apprehend a shoplifter. By deterring the theft ahead of time, you reduce your inventory losses without putting your employees at risk.

Employees and Business Longevity- Loss Prevention Training

For the companies being sold to investment firms, many will not be around in five to ten years. They will be sold, or may go under completely after all of the assets have been striped of any redeeming value. As far as an investment firm is concerned, the longevity of the company is not important, the short-term profits are.
To fulfill these profit goals, the investment firms will make massive staffing and payroll reductions. They reduce the employee hours to about as minimum as what they can get away with. Employee benefits are next to go. What you are left with are employees who are viewed as disposable assets, instead of valuable ones. Needless to say, employee training and development whether it is in the form of computer based learning, seminars, workshops, or one on one development is non existent.
Depending upon which side of the coin you are on, this is either a completely brilliant or completely inane business strategy. The deciding factor falls within what you want the longevity of your business to be.
For companies who are looking for longevity, treating employees as assets to be nurtured and developed is essential.
The more training employees have, they more they will feel in control, and valued. They are more willing to go the extra mile for the business, and want to further their own growth and development as an employee. This makes your business profitable for the long haul.
